First Multimedia Review

In this video, it is reported that cosmetic and tanning salon companies believe that tanning in tanning beds causes skin cancer. It has been broadcasted that skin cancer is all a hype when it comes to tanning indoors, However, Emily, a young woman who was interviewed, says that it is not a hype because she is recovering from melanoma that was initially caused by going to the tanning bed at the age of nineteen for on average four times a week. David Leffell, a Yale medical student says that “The ad misrepresents the scientific facts that UVA lights from both the sun and the tanning beds cause skin cancer.”
I believe that this video is very contradicting in the way it presents the hype, no hype situation of tanning beds. It says at one point that tanning is healthy but then turns around and says by the way it causes cancer. This video is semi hard to follow because I am not sure that I fully understand both sides of the video because of the factual or non factual information given in the video.
